The new WeedPro site is online & has plenty of features

Going Interactive worked with the great WeedPro staff to create a unique site from scratch which fits with their new natural and organic services. WeedPro is a Georgia based company who provides a myriad of residential and commercial services.

Going Interactive wanted to make them stand out from the crowd and give them a variety of educational and social features. Some of these include a convenient Send to Friend function, an Add This social networking share tool, the customized WeedPro Blog, a WeedPro Twitter account and a WeedPro YouTube Channel all of which help with organic SEO.

Going Interactive also filmed and animated a number of videos to be featured in the Education section of the WeedPro website.

A short and entertaining Game – "You Pick Em" was also created to keep customers on the site and having fun.

Overall the new WeedPro site is a great example of a site that utilizes a variety of new and relevant interactive features to keep things fresh, educational and entertaining.

Check out the full site – www.weedpro.com – and if you are based in the Metro Atlanta area, give them a call and go organic!

GI Produces Fun Animated Promotional Video

Going Interactive recently wrapped up production on this fun little promo video for "The Connected Life" for Edelman. It features a dude who's trying to hook up some complicated DVRs and cable, etc. But suddenly the Connected Life super person appears to hook it up for him and shows him how cool it can be in his house. In the end he's happy and his family dances with joy. GI wrote, animated and did the voice over.

PowerPoint to Flash Interactive CDs

We've had a number of projects this year where we design and develop a rich PowerPoint presentation and then process it into an interactive and menu driven Flash presentation.

When producing comprehensive Sales Tools for distribution the advantages to this process are numerous. Doing the actual content in PPT enables us to work easier with the Client on edits and revisions. Files are quickly transferred back and forth and review sessions are efficient b/c both parties can view the same exact file while discussing via conference calls. Edits can be made right on the fly. Also the PPT stage enables the Client to internally edit content with their internal team.

After the screen by screen content is complete we then move it into Flash to "hook up" external linking items like Cost-In-Use calculators, Flash video files, PDFs, docs, and external website links. This is where the Flash advantage comes in. Doing this in PPT would produce a painfully clunky and unreliable button linking monster. Not to mention an unnecessarily oversized file.

That leads us to the other Flash advantage of being able to hook up a main Menu Title screen, hidden Forward / Backward buttons, and roll over sub menus. All these give the presenter the option to customize the presentation based on the audience.

The last but not least advantage is budget. Using the PPT on the front end for customized design, content and review sessions saves time and production resources and thus makes the overall project price lower than if it was all being produced in Flash.

The final result is a fully interactive presentation with menus, video content, links and more that can be distributed on CD or on little jump drives. It is the perfect presentation tool and leave behind item for any B2B sales and marketing department.
